บททั้งหมดของ Spoiled by Mr. Russell: บทที่ 1391 - บทที่ 1400

Lily smiled lightly. "Who told you?"Anastasia stiffened. Her fair skin betrayed the redness that appeared on her face."N-No one. I was just curious."There was a conflict in her heart. On the one hand, questioning Lily like this felt like she distrusted her friend. How could she believe a stranger so easily? On the other hand, Anastasia had some doubts about Lily.The man told Anastasia that she had been put under a spell, and he said all of this confidently. It was her own body that was put at risk."Is it Austin?" Lily asked after thinking about it. He was the only one who would get in between her and Anastasia, belittling Lily in various ways.She had never met a man as petty as he was. She had nothing against him. All the times he had fought against, belittled, and suppressed her were due to his sexism. Lily was bored with it.After being called out, Anastasia couldn't hold herself back and lowered her gaze before softly muttering, "I'm sorry.""There's nothing to be sorr

"Now, don't you start overthinking. It might not be the maids." Lily paused as if she wanted to change the subject but suddenly asked, "By the way, you don't really like flowers and plants, and you don't know much about medicinal herbs either. Why do you have so many potted plants at home?"Anastasia was still upset by what she heard and replied mechanically, "Those were all sent by my aunt. She said I'm not in good health and don't like to leave the house, so having more greenery is good for me.She continued to mumble, “My aunt mentioned how being surrounded by greens can lift someone's mood, and they produce oxygen, which is good for my body. However, I don't think it made me feel any better…" Then she seemed to have remembered something and raised her head to look at Lily. "Could it be those flowers and plants? Could it be that my aunt is trying to poison me? No! That's impossible! Although my aunt nags me a lot and says hurtful things, she still cares about me.“I know this!

Over the past few years, Austin had been holding onto the title people gave him of being Dominic's secret apprentice. Others respected him, and people would beg for him to visit their friends or family who had contracted some disease from time to time.He had grown accustomed to living in the limelight, although he would repeatedly tell himself that he had never explicitly confirmed or denied the truth. It was all wishful thinking by the public. It had nothing to do with him.However, guilt started forming in him after such a long time. On top of that, he also feared that he might be exposed.Besides competing with Lily, he feared she might come out one day and expose that he was not Dominic's secret apprentice. Therefore, Austin had been trying to use his strength to prove that he did not need the title to be capable. Still, he was always a step behind when it came to Lily.This time, he retrieved the data Lily had deleted. It was all based on his own skills, thus making him feel

"There's no need for that," Anastasia said flatly as she lowered her head to drink more water. "I didn't tell my father, so you shouldn't either.""Why?!" Maria was surprised. "How could you not tell your father about something so severe?!""My father has been worn out recently so I don't want to disturb him. Besides, if my dad finds out about this, he will surely make a big fuss. I don't want things to get out of hand before I know the truth.“Since this person is someone close to me, I want to talk with them and ask why they would do this to me." Then Anastasia raised her head to look at Maria. "Aunt Maria, will you help me with this?"Maria was stunned by her question for a moment before quickly recovering and saying, "Yes, of course! Of course, I'll help you! It's just…""We shouldn't discuss this now and keep it a secret between us. Once we've cleared things up, I'll tell my father that you've helped me all this time and even found me a miracle doctor to help cure my illness,

"What's wrong with the Russell family? What do you mean by bad luck?" Anastasia immediately became nervous when she heard this.She regarded Lily as her best friend. Thus, she did not want anything to happen to the Russell family. It was possible that her aunt was being an alarmist, but as long as that possibility remained, she could not just dismiss it."You shouldn't be asking!" Maria was afraid that she might slip up."Aunt Maria, tell me about it! You can't bring it up and not explain!" Anastasia pestered.Ultimately, Maria said, "This is no secret. Something is going on with the Russell family's business. There was a collective poisoning incident in one of their factories in Burnwken. Although it wasn't serious at first, Alexander had flown over to investigate. I heard it was chaotic there, with an ongoing war, and there seemed to be a plague.“Look at it this way. If something happened to Alexander, wouldn't the Russell family be in a mess? By that time, people believed the
